Easy for me to say: Is Nice the sort of system that works if you have it collect data on a regular but discontinuous basis? If you want to reduce the server load it seems a reasonable option to turn it on then off again - to keep the dependent apps working, er… Nicely.

Reasons or not, the prime prior example - killing Felix app overnight - didn't exactly contribution much to the continued success of ADN.

Yeah, it's just me opining again.
